Nursing Passes Accreditation Review

Congratulations to the NHTI Department of Nursing! Last week, the Department underwent a combined accreditation visit from the Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing (ACEN) and the New Hampshire Board of Nursing. Findings from the accreditation visit were extremely positive! The site visitors found that the Department of Nursing is in compliance with all Standards and recommended continuing accreditation for 8 years. We had only five (5) out of fifty six (56) criteria mentioned as areas needing development. The next steps are the ACEN Evaluation Review Panel and Board of Commissioners who review the report before the “official” notification is sent in August 2016.

This recognition and accomplishment has tremendous benefits. It ensures a nursing program meets nationally established standards that strengthen the quality of nursing education. It promotes educational and professional mobility of graduates. Students are able to continue their nursing studies and apply to other accredited colleges and universities to pursue their baccalaureate and master’s degree in nursing. Nursing employers seek competent graduates from accredited programs. Accreditation also enables student eligibility for financial aid.

Success for this accreditation would not be possible without the incredible support from everyone on campus. The Department of Nursing would like to sincerely thank everyone, across the campus, for their dedicated teamwork and collaboration.
